Kacper Kępiński: Tectonic Landscapes: The Artificial Nature 

Lecture room no. 103
AFAD, Hviezdoslavovo nám. 18, Bratislava

What we call “nature” is often anything but natural. 
The talk explores tectonic landscapes — environments reshaped by both subtle and drastic human interventions. It examines how engineering, extraction, and architecture transform not only the ground beneath us but also the entire landscape above — its forms, ecologies, and ways of being. Architecture here becomes both a tool and a witness of these transformations, revealing how the built environment participates in shaping new artificial natures — hybrid terrains where design, technology, and ecology are deeply intertwined.
